The use of the schoolhouse for other than school purposes, but in no case shall the schoolhouse be used for purposes which necessitate the removal of any school desks or other school furniture.
(c)
The sale and purchase of school sites.
(d)
The prosecution, settlement, or compromise of any litigation in which the district is engaged, or is likely to become engaged.

All funds raised by the sale of school property may be disposed of by direction of a district meeting.
